You have most of the same stuff that I will have shortly. Only difference is you have NGK TR-6's, FTRA, and 3.42's, and I'm getting the TCI SSF 3500.

I hope that I'll have near the same #'s once I make my car full bolt-on.

Good numbers with the stall, BTW. Was that locked or unlocked?

Thanks, I'm satisfied w/ the #'s, just hoping it runs the # at the track tomorrow.

Those #'s are locked and SAE corrected.

Thanks, the bottle pressure was barely 900 psi, I usually shoot for at least 950 psi when I run the car. On the pass in my sig - the bottle pressure was 950+ and I picked up a full 10 MPH spraying from about 500 ft out in 2nd gear. Dunno that a little more bottle pressure would have made lots of difference... but I know the car picks up 10 MPH spraying 1/2 of 2nd and all of 3rd. ::shrugs::

On a side note... I must say my converter impressed me, on the baseline we did one pass unlocked, then a 2nd pass right away locked. My car only picked up 5.4 RWHP locking the converter. I've seen people posting that they lose 10-15 RW w/ their converter unlocked.

A friend of mine was gracious enough to take some video footage of the car on the dyno. Another friend was nice enough to host it for me. Here it is: Dyno

Nice numbers. To tell ya the truth though, those locked numbers don't mean **** cause the 'verter isn't going to lock up when under WOT.

Whoops! Sorry, I skipped over that part. That's one efficient converter you have there.

NP, I see a chassis dyno as a tuning tool... the proof was the day after when I ran it at the track. I went 12.292 @ 112.54 N/A on a spinning 1.896 60'. Car is full weight save for the rear seats being removed.

Thanks, a forged bottom end 347 is being built currently by EMS, and it will be topped off w/ AFR 205's and a FAST 90mm. Not sure on the cam yet... leaning towards a Futral grind. I'd really like to sort the car out some more and get it to leave harder, then maybe throw on an EWP as that would be my last true "bolt on." I honestly think I can push this thing into the high 11's with enough launch.
